Abstract
The authors give a brief introduction to mutation analysis. They they discuss Mothra, emphasizing how it interacts with the tester. The authors present some major problems with using mutation analysis and discuss possible solutions. They conclude with a solution to one of these problems-a method of automatically generating mutation-adequate data
